Central Park Event this Weekend
Anyone starting a ride in Central Park (or planning to do laps): this came in from the Central Park Coservancy.
"Luis Palau concert this Saturday will impact the Drives beginning as early as Thursday evening through Tuesday. Recreational users of the Drive should be extra cautious on the East and West Drives between 72nd St and 90th St."
Apparently they will be setting up barriers on the drives. The set-up will happen Thursday-Friday; the take-down will happen Sunday-Monday. (I don't think the barriers will actually close the drives, but space will be limited.)
NEAR INSTANT HELP NEEDED! Luddite seeks Garmin 810 instruction.
